Can't get images into template of Master Board

Subject: Can't get images into template of Master Board

I have installed the Masterboard V2.0 and it works perfectly. I am trying to use the same template buttons that I am using on the website, but I can't seem to set the path to the images properly.
When the cgi program creates the page and inserts it into the template, where should the images which that template uses for its button bar be located? I can't seem to load any image onto the template page, including images in the same directory as the templates. Any suggetions? Thanks

Use complete http://... URLs, Murray. Relative URLs don't work because the pages are displayed from within the script rather than from the location of the templates. This rule also applies to links, external CSS files, external JavaScript files -- everything except SSI. The reason SSI is exempted is because the SSI info is inserted *before* the page gets to the scirpt. Everything else is inserted into the page after the script gets it.
